We compiled some social media reactions to the nomination of the archconservative judge Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. These reactions came before and after the Sept. 27 Senate committee testimony in which both Christine Blasey Ford and Brett Kavanaugh testified. Many commentators agree that the Senate hearing was a sham. According to Jonathan Chait “the method Republicans have used to defend Kavanaugh has consisted of suppressing most of the evidence that could be brought to bear in the hearing, and then complaining about the lack of evidence.”
Before last night’s hearing, one of the concerns expressed by a great majority of people is the possibility that Trump’s nominee to the most powerful legal job in the United States will overturn Roe v. Wade, the 1937 landmark decision that made abortion legal. Roe v. Wade was a win for women’s rights. Recent opposition to Kavanaugh’s confirmation also comes after several media reports of improper sexual conduct by the nominee. The allegations are quite serious. It is possible then—if the winds of change pick up more steam— that we will not hear about Kavanaugh again. In the meantime, Social media users are expressing their opposition to Kavanaugh and calling out the Republican’s double standard and hypocrisy.
